    SAS Draglink length

    I'm doing an SAS on my 94 k1500, I ordered my cross over and highsteer kit from Northwest fab (Canadian) as they make a wicked kit with incredible parts and the beffiest setup in the industry and they are 3 hours from where I am. They also beat ORD by 90$ on price before conversion. The rest of...

    EGR problems

    EGR problems

    My truck has a wicked bad bog at idle speed, and it lopes when idling cold. I have determined that something in the EGR system is the problem. when I unplug the vacuum line to the EGR valve the truck runs awesome, leading me to believe that the solenoid is allowing the valve to see vacuum at...

    would you score me the measurement from the bottom of the frame rail down to the center-line of the shackle bolt? (assuming that is on a 88-98 truck)

    Axle Shims: 4" Shackle Flip 1" Zero Rate AAL

    you will get 5.5" the rough country tapered blocks are 4 degrees, my truck has no vibrations and its got the 4" and a 2" add a leaf. however when you lower the end of the leaf the leaf surface flattens out so you might not need a 4 degree shim

    14 Bolt Swap How to

    Has anyone with this swap had to change parking brake cables? I went from stock ten bolt to a 14boltsf, and my parking brake is banjo string tight and locked on now, it never used to be this way with the ten bolt Sent from slow non-vortec IPhone using tapatalk

    Parking brake problems

    I just finished a 14 bolt semi floater swap into my 94 half ton that had a 10 bolt. I finally got it all installed and my rear drums are dragging. Not enough to lock wheels up but enough to barely let it roll down my driveway. The wheel cylinders are new. The brakes have been bled. I'm...

    Shackle Flip kits (and related RCX problems)

    A zero rate add-a-leaf? hows that work?, why does the flip un-center the axle? and is it true the droop better? I know the math behind a inverted shackle says more angular movement. but I have never ran a flipped shackle.

    6 inch lift

    I have a 6" RCX lift, and a winch bumper in the front, I make 35's look tiny. if you have a narrow front bumper or are willing to trim the stock one, you can run 37's. I have no sway bar and cant touch a 35'" anywhere in the fender when fully flexed and turned.

    Lift Questions

    6" should be plenty for 35" without a BL lift. I have a 6" rough country, ended up making 35's look tiny. I could probably run 37's with very minimal trimming. but I also have alot less front bumper then stock trucks, which is what ends up trimmed the most to fit big tires

    RCX Lift Opinions

    I just finished my 94 with a 6" RCX, great kit! the 6" is big forsure, I had 285/75R16 tires on stock rims, (33's) and they looked tiny on the 6", I would say get the 6" kit and don't put the add a leaf in. its 30$ more, and having a lifted truck and being able to almost clear 35's........ you...

    RCX lift kit for The Duke

    Where you as worried as I was when the front of your kit was finished? It took us a 10 hour day to knock out the front and when we rolled it out of the shop for the night It barely looked lifted. I figured I wasted all my money. then we did the rear and holy ..... clears 35's with ease. I love...

    1994 Smurf

    Id like to take the crhome off, and maybe get the tow mirrors. what about pulling the chrome/black bumper strip off the truck that runs down the body? would make it look way more modern. But i dont know how its held there or what scary stuff could be under it
